Heey guys, time for an update!

Sorry for the lack of updates in the past 2 months, I blame at least 50% on poor / slow PostNord shipping. Anyways, the samples have now been examined and we're very happy with the anodizing quality. However, because we're using different alloys it will be hard to create that "space gray" / DARK anodizing for the prototypes, especially if we want the parts to match with each other. The anno-shop told us that they would do their best, but if there are color match problems the parts will be anodized in black.

The shells are packed and ready for final anodizing!

I'll send the package today (Monday 5th of August). After that its 10 days shipping + 2 weeks anodizing (max) + 1 weeks of shipping back to us. Stay tuned for more and let me know if you have anything on your mind

Best,
Alex

Up for this. Have subbed on the website for an email on release. Is there a plan for a £GBP / Euro Price? How many are you having made in the first batch?

Why not do a variant with natural anodising? The colour will come out a nice grey and would give a lighter variant if people preferred, not sure if you mean just because the prototypes happen to be in different alloys or this will be an ongoing challenge?

Awesome, thanks a lot man! We'll start with a USD kickstarter batch and see how things move on from there :) The first batch will consist of 500 units.

We'll use natural anodizing on the production units, both for the Steel and Dark tones. The production units will be of the exact same alloy and ingot, so no issues regarding that thingy in the future :)

Looking great. When can we get our hands on one?

Looking to downsize my rig soon to itx and this looks like a great case.

My custom parvum case I did my build log for has served me well but I think it's time to move on.
